Another day in paradise

still in hospital after another attack over the weekend, its been less than a month since my last admission.

Just questioning what will stop it now. There must be something to help. I do take a mix of vitamins and magnesium plus all my medication And try to be healthy.

My consultant came to see me today and kind of just said "let's keep 2 hourly Nebs and chase up the referal to the other place"

Helpful! also guessing lm not going home yet! I also assume he doesn't have an answer to why it's happening so much with no real obvious triggers.

Hopefully I will Manage sleep and feel less exsarsperated!

Sorry I posted another whinge

hi cconstan1....are you on any maintenance inhaler or any asthma medication other the Nebs...Also, have you tried Buteyko Breathing Exercise. All I see is that you take Magnesium and Nebs on your profile. Hope you feel better...buteyko really helps me control my symptoms. Let me know if you try it someday.

I'm on qvar too... Been doing research on symbicort. I know a co-worker that swears by it. The review is not to bad. When My qvar stops working...my doctor has it on back up if I need it.......but I'm afraid to take the long acting inhalers. Thanks for the reply...

I do take alternative stuff too that helps my immune system. If your interested, I'll send it to you.

take care
